I too think the title and scope of this forum should be widened. Yes.
In response to Robin’s comments about the F3 and AF100… I agree. I would have bought the F3 if they had placed the VF off to the left so there was some way to hold the darned thing on your shoulder. I learned my lesson with the Z1U. Unless you are a power lifter there is no good way to shoot with it hand held for long. I can use my EX-3 on some rails and shoulder pad and shoot away.
On another note, the Panasonic “100” has to be one of the clunkiest pieces of industrial design I have ever seen. It doesn’t effect the pictures it makes of course, but damn that thing is ugly. Makes the HVX-200 look like a runway model!
